Reflections
Though I have a very strong testimony, I don't often share it. That is not necessarily true, I get to every week to the children in my ward about the gosple principles they are taught in Primary.
For sometime I have wished that I could show in the form of art (for other people to see-perferably in song), my Father in Heaven and elder brother Jesus Christ how much I love them and appreciate all that they have given and still give me. I can sing, and somewhat play the violin. I can't draw or paint. My parents showed us that service is a way of showing praise and love for Heavenly Father and Christ. I guess that is why when I have a calling I pour everything I have, and usually more then I have to give, into it.
Aunt Dietz and Cousin Abi are so comfortable about sharing their testimonies, that I have felt inaddiquet the last couple of months. When it comes to my testimony and spiritual experiences I tend to keep them sacred to me (if that makes sense).
Come Thou Fount has been one of my favorite songs, and when I feel lost and alone, this song helps me to put things into prospective,and is part of my Testimony.

This is also one of my very favorite songs! "...prone to wander, Lord I feel it..." everyday seems bring challenges that draw me away and I have to make a concerted effort to realine my life with the gospel. Some days are easier than other to do that. So I say "...here's my heart now take and seal it, seal it for thy courts above."
Oh those pictures and that song give me chills! I wish it were still in the hymn book...it's so good.
I'm with your mom. Everyday seems to be a new renewal opportunity to get myself back on track. I seem to wander a lot in my worldly focused life. I try so hard to not do things wrong, when I should be focused on just doing things right. Sounds so easy!
Thanks for the reminder. I too love that song and the video. I had seen it on another blog too.
